I learned on a very old VanNorman grinder. The counter weights were bolted on, there were different sizes that had to be stacked to balance the offset. Then we got a newer '1955' VanNorman with the counter weights on a slide. Still dialed in the rod journals with a brass hammer. Spent 28 years in a machine shop it's been 12 years and watching this brought back a lot of memories.
I couldn't imagine how you'd machine the connecting-rod journals, with it being offset from the centerline and all. Then i saw the chuck offset tool - that's amazing. Must be **hell** to get dialed in on both ends.
The mating journals are side x side on the same pin. I know what you meant tho. On a counter rotating crank the oiling holes are in the wrong spot as the oil would hit after the power stroke. Cross drilling the mains would be imperative in this application.
Please keep them coming ? Been looking for this content. Thank you. Ps. Do u work on any toyota engines? I checked your channel and i see just like a few videos. How about more. Also. Nice .. really nice videos. Good job
Different Strokes different folks I would use the right wheel and I never plunge 2-0 this can create a seam personally I use 1/10 gauge I ran a 15 a special they are a good machine strictly Automotive grinding 3516 caterpillar like that and you'll be buying the customer a new crankshaft my goal is zero taper round no Burns or interruptions from Rod cheek to radius I am a heavy engine component Machinist I did Automotive my first 20 years found that diesel was more challenging and paid a lot better that crankshaft you're grinding is worth about $100 I grind crankshaft that cost $90,000 I don't miss size and when I'm done I want 10 guys to Mike that crankshaft there's only one way the right way
I love watching someone else grinding. I’ve been doing it for 30 years and learn something every time watching someone else grind

Mon ancien métier, une partie de ma carrière 👍, merci pour la belle video bien réalisée 👍👍👍
Great crankshaft grinding videos keep them coming there’s not many videos out there explaining and showing what you are 👍
What country is this engineer from?
for non "race stuff" it looks pretty f cking good

beautiful clean machine.
nerver seen how a crank was turned for the conn. rods. knew for the mains only. nice man
Never knew how it was done, awesome.
Real profesional job..very good
Awesome thanks wish I had a lathe
Great video!

I thought you around the rods before the Maine's the mange is the one that turns in the block
That's a cast crank guy's look at the thin casting line, a forged is a wide line
How many rpms does the motor driving the grinding wheel run.

Is there a way to tighten the tailstock, won't grind a round journel
That's are to say. I'd start with a precision bar assuming you have a chuck machine and fine out if it's out in the same spot.

who cares
Punctuation might help your one long sentence of you patting yourself on the back.
How to applu
Steady rest on the uncut side of the journal?? I would never do it that way! And cutting all the radis off ! Not good
What did you use to blast or clean the crank before you did any grinding?
Oven bake and steel shot blast.
